Nice Car

I have a 2008 S550 4Matic with 124,000 on the clock.

I am TRYING, to drive my other car, a Honda Accord Sport with a 6 speed.

It is a fun car but I can't seem to stop driving the Benz. I find reasons to go places and I take the longest possible roads to get there.

I just love this car. BTW, this car looks like it was built last night. Inside and out.

I am sorry, but I just cannot come close to writing the word Honda and Mercedes Benz in the same sentence.
Just sitting in a Japanese car compared to a Benz makes me feel like sitting in a cheap and poorly designed interior, ........ therefore I would not even want to drive it.

I do however have to agree with you on the looks, the W221 does look like it was just designed, and is better looking IMHO than most new cars our there. I think the design is timeless, ......

The New accords are very nice looking, great as a 3rd or 4th vehicle. The S550 is of course opulence with performance. I'd rather buy a used S550 W221 than a brand new accord.

I am sorry, but I guess my income is far below yours, as I could not afford a NEW Accord as a 3rd or 4th vehicle.

I stick with the two vehicles we have, both MB!!!!!

You are quite right.

The 221 body. I love it.

I do not think a Rolls is in my future so I will have to settle for the 550.

In reality, that is exactly what I did because the lease on the Honda is due in 2 months. Bye, bye Honda, hello 550.
